I thought it is similar to "Log notice file /var/log/tor/notices.log" in debian
where you specify a single file.
So you Michael say in in freeBSD the torrc file is looking for a folder entry -
I will try that tomorrow..
so it will be
"sudo mkdir /var/log/tor"
"sudo chown _tor:_tor /var/log/tor"
"sudo chmod 600 /var/log/tor"
